| Best progressive rock album side I sorta associate prog rock with the British. That said: - Quartermass - Moody Blues: Just about their entire catalogue, but I will select In Search of the Lost Chord - Jefferson Airplane: After Bathing at Baxter’s - Pink Floyd: Meddle, Umm... | |
| Question about speaker angle The short answer is “It depends…” as for a longer answer. I do not think I can add anything of interest that has not already been said. As a general rule, I keep them mostly parallel with the rear wall, toed in maybe a couple of degrees at be... | |
| My endgame system I think @ronboco I used the Rockwool brand from Lowes as well. No panels: just 17" thick of the rockwool and the burlap over it. I was a little leery at first over health concerns, in spite of the research I did that said it was very safe, but my archit... | |
| What defines mid-fi versus high-end? I thought I was omniscient, but frankly, this one has me stumped. | |
| You know you have audiophile system when... I love music. The audio system is the means to an end: to hear the music as closely as possible to the way that the artist and engineer intended you to hear it. | |
| My endgame system I think I see rock wool in the walls but you don’t specify brand? And the panels you are using to cover them are? I used burlap: cheap ($4.00 per yard) and aesthetically pleasing (to me, at any rate). | |
| Inexpensive Good Vintage Turntables? Clearthinker: I bought a VPI HW MK II in 1986. In 2014, I wanted to upgrade. I was going to buy a VPI Classic, but noticed the change in design philosophy. I called and asked Harvey about it. He told me that the lead ring used to make a HW was ... | |
| Inexpensive Good Vintage Turntables? I dunno what inexpensive means in this group. Too vague a term. Price range, please? | |
| Dust cover up or down? I’ve found that since I’ve dramatically improved my room, it doesn’t matter if it’s up, down, or off. | |
| Do you build anything for your high fidelity system? If so, what do you make? A room. I'm moving, and I'm building an even better one. | |
| Audiophiles on Audiogon. I mean, really. Attacking people for spending $1,000,000 on component interconnects while Ukrainian families are being brutally murdered by the tens of thousands is an easy mark, and he can’t even get that right, even though people here provide hi... | |
| Audiophiles on Audiogon. Troll alert. | |
| Can a Amp be "timeless" and compete with todays amps? My equipment is 15 to 66 years old. Most of my guests think it sounds spectacular. theaudioatticvinylsundays.com | |
| Has the cost of HiFi gotten a bit too much? @ghasley : clearly, you are unable to appreciate dark sardonic humor. I also posted it as a way of protesting how off the rails off topic this thread became. | |
| Looking for warm tube preamp (should pair well with Pass power amp), budget $6000 I like my Beard P505 but they can be fussy (a non-feedback design, whatever that means), and good luck finding one, he stopped making them decades ago |
